General English and Business English, Native British tutor in Tokyo

From 15 £ /h

Hello everyone,

Thanks for visiting my profile! My name is Thom (トム). I'm from Bristol, England. I speak clear standard British English and I have 7 years' experience working in the education industry in both Seoul and Tokyo. I currently work as a Business English teacher for a major language company I also work in curriculum development - creating published textbooks!

We can study business English or we can practice general communication. I think it is a good idea to do role plays (eg., English for restaurants, shopping, and travelling). We may also have a free talk about any topic you choose. I can help with exam preparation for TOEFL, TOEIC, and IELTS. If you need help with formal or academic writing, we can work on that, too!

There is a nice large cafe in Mejiro (Yamanote) that is perfect for lessons. I hope to see you there in the future!

Thanks
Thom

Hi ! My name is Julien and I'm a Panda.
seriously though, I've been a french/english teacher in Tokyo for more than 20 years

If you want to learn French in a fun way, I'm here for you.
I've seen many students give up because the lessons were dull and the teacher too strict.
So I'll give my all to teach you what you need, the way you need it !

I mostly teach conversational french because that's what students usually need, but I also teach grammar and pronunciation (With the help of Gattegno's Silent Way)

You can request a first lesson and we can decide on a plan to achieve your goals.
See you soon !

I also do online lessons !

こんにちは、パンダです。
パンダと見えない?でもパンダだよ。目を閉じたら解るはずです。
はい、パンダはフランス語しゃべってるよ・・・
はい、笹が好きです。
この20年以上のフランス語を教える経験で、詰まらないレッスンで生徒さんがだんだんモチベーションが下がって、諦める。
だから成功するために、楽しく、気軽に授業したいです。

英語も教えますから、気軽に聞いてください

クラスで、教科書を使って、会話額と思います。
フランス語の教科書はほとんど「TAXI!」を使います。
英語の教科書は「English for Everyone」を使う。
発音の為に、Caleb Gattegnoの「Silent Way」

フランス語か英語を楽しく勉強したいですか?会いに来てね!
パンダが好きですか?来てください!

初めのレッスン受けたら、レベルを計って、自分の奥的によって勉強のプランを決めましょう。東京のどこかでもオンラインでもレッスン楽しくしましょう!

楽しいレッスンが嫌い?パンダとフランス語は興味ないですか?
きっと他の先生はつまらないレッスンできると思う・・・
コアラドイツ語はあるのかな?

As a native French speaker currently finishing my Master's in Tokyo at Waseda University I'd be happy to provide help regarding either French or English. I can either teach the basics or more advanced courses; we can focus on whatever you prefer whether it is grammar, speaking, or even literature. I can also speak Japanese so we can communicate more easily. I look forward to speaking in French or English with you !

Speak English more naturally and confidently in lessons designed around your goals, interests and current level. I am a native English speaker from the United States with 15 years of teaching experience, and I work with students from complete beginner to advanced level.

Lessons can focus on everyday conversation, business English, interviews, travel, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, academic English, presentations, debate or detailed discussion. Rather than following the same textbook with every student, I adapt the material and teaching method to what you actually need.

My lessons are friendly and comfortable, but also structured and purposeful. I explain difficult points clearly, correct mistakes supportively and give you plenty of opportunities to speak. As a long-term learner of Japanese and Korean, I understand how challenging it can be to express yourself in another language.

We can also build lessons around subjects you genuinely enjoy, including business, entrepreneurship, finance, technology, psychology, fitness, travel, manga, anime and current events. Whether you need English for daily life, professional development or meaningful conversation, I will help you communicate with greater accuracy, confidence and independence.
